33 ~ meeting
Draco rushed upstairs right away after you came back from Hogwarts. You ran after him right away, completely ignoring the fact that your parents wanted to speak to you.
You stopped him from closing the door to his room. He let you in and closed the door behind him. You hugged him right away. Draco held you tightly against him. You felt so bad for him.
'Are you okay?'
'Yeah I'm good.'
'I just had to ask.. I've never really seen you cry.'
Draco didn't say anything. He just held you for a moment. You kissed his cheek shortly. You let him go.
'It's over now.' You said. 'We did it. We managed somehow.'
'We did..'
You looked up at him and fixed the lapels of his suit. You kissed his cheeks.
'I probably need to go talk to my parents.. just take some time for yourself.. I'll be right back.'
You headed back downstairs. Your parents were standing there.
'Is Draco okay?' Narcissa asked.
'Yeah he's just tired.. I think it's still because of the thing Harry did to him. I told him to rest for a bit.'
'Alright, I'll check up on him later.'
She walked away. You looked back at your parents.
'The way you and Draco mended that cabinet.. is quite extraordinary.' Your mother said.
'Maybe you two have more death eater qualities than we anticipated. That's why you two get to join our death eater meeting later on this week. I feel like that will be a good next step.' Your father said. 'Well done.'
They walked away. Did they just tell you.. you did a good job? You walked back upstairs. Draco was just sitting on his bed. He looked up at you and smiled a little when he saw you.
'Did it go well?' He asked.
'They didn't even mention me not killing Dumbledore.. they asked me to join their death eater meeting.'
'Oh guess we're going there together then.'
You sat down besides him and moved some of his hair behind his ear.
'I'm okay.' He said.
'I'm not sure you are.'
'Are you?'
You didn't say anything. Harry's words hurt you. He called you a traitor. Were you a traitor? You didn't know. This was all about surviving.. having a family, finally not being alone.
'Don't listen to Harry.' Draco said.
He knew you too well. He knew that words like that got to you. Draco didn't think you were a traitor. You were just doing what had to be done. He understood you. Maybe that's why you two were such a good match.
'You're not a traitor. After everything he did he has no right to speak.'
You smiled a little at him. You were happy he was there for you.

You looked at yourself in the mirror. You were wearing your black dress. It was time for the death eater meeting. Draco stopped besides you. You saw you two standing together. He was wearing his black suit. You didnt often say it but you two looked good together. Draco wrapped an arm around you.
'I'll be in there with you.'
'I'm glad you are.' You said with a tiny smile.
You heard your family head downstairs. Nik was going to be there too. Your family would be complete. You took a deep breath. Draco kissed your cheek.
He grabbed your hand and he took you downstairs. You entered the right room. Voldemort was sitting at the end of the table.
'Good day, my lord.' You said.
Draco said the same. Voldemort looked at you two.
'Good afternoon, Draco.. Y/N.'
You sat down besides your brother and Draco sat down besides his father. He was still sitting besides you.
More death eaters came in. You recognised some from the night Dumbledore got killed. You felt Draco lay his hand on your leg to make sure you knew he was there. You looked at him and smiled.
Almost everyone was there. One seat was empty. The meeting should've started 10 minutes ago..You saw Snape entering the room. Voldemort looked up.
'Severus... I was beginning to worry you had lost your way.' He said. 'Come, we've saved you a seat.'
Snape walked towards the empty seat and sat down. You looked back at Voldemort.
'You bring news I trust.'
'It will happen Saturday next, at nightfall.' Snape said.
'I've heard differently... In our knowledge the auror let slip that the Potter boy will not be moved until the 30th of this month. The day before he turns 17.' Another death eater said.
'This is a false trail. The auror office no longer plays any part of the protection of Harry Potter. Those closest to him believe we have infiltrated the ministry.' Snape reacted.
'Well...' the man grinned. 'They got that right.'
Everyone around you laughed. You didn't know why. You didn't think that was funny. You just joined in a little.
'And what say you Pius?' Voldemort asked.
Pius looked up from the table. He turned his head from Voldemort.
'One hears many things my lord. But if the truth is among them is not clear.'
Voldemort grinned.
'Spoken like a true politician. You will I think prove most useful Pius.'
Voldemort looked at Snape. You laid your hand on Dracos hand and folder the tip of your fingers around them.
'Where will he be taken, the boy?'
'To a safe house... Most likely the house of someone in the order, until he's been giving any manner of protection possible. Once there it will be impractical to attack him.'
Bellatrix coughed. She clearly wanted to gain the attention of Voldemort.
'My lord...' she whispered.
Voldemort looked at her.
'I'd like to volunteer myself for this task... I want to kill the boy.' She spoke.
Everyone know Voldermort had to kill him and wanted to kill him. You didn't know why she even said she wanted to do it. You heard very disturbing sounds in the background.
'Wormtail!' Voldemort yelled. 'Have I not spoken to you about keeping our guest quiet!' He hissed.
'Yes... m-my lord... right away, my lord.'
Voldemort focused back on Bellatrix. You let out a tiny sigh.
'As inspiring I find your bloodlust Bellatrix, I must be the one to kill Harry Potter.'
Bellatrix sat back a bit disappointed. Voldemort got up and you looked at him.
'But I face an unfortunate complication... that my wand and Potters share the same core. They are in some ways twins. We can wound but not fatally harm one another.'
He placed his wand on table and looked past everyone. This was going to be interesting. Draco moved his hand a little and grabbed yours.
'If I am to kill him I must do it with another's wand.' He spoke.
He started walking in your direction. Passed Bellatrix, Narcissa and Lucius. He touched Dracos chair. Draco had a cold look on his face but you knew he was nervous as well. Maybe even scared.
'Surely one of you would like the honor.' He spoke while continuing.
Your breath shivered a bit as he passed you. You were scared of him being so close to you. He then passed your brother and your parents before walking back to Draco and Lucius.
'What about... you, Lucius?' He asked while stopping next to his chair.
Lucius looked up.
'My lord..' he spoke.
You almost couldn't hear it.
'My lord.' Voldemort spoke after him in a childish way.
He stuck out his hand.
'I require your wand.' He spoke.
Lucius looked at his walking stick. He grabbed the top of it and pulled his wand out of it. He handed him the fancy wand with the snake head on top.
'Do I detect... elm?' He asked.
'Yes my lord.' He spoke.
Voldemort looked at it a bit closer. He grabbed the top of the wand and broke the snake head off.
'And the core...'
'Dragon.' Lucius spoke softly. Lucius coughed and said it again.
Voldemort threw the snake head on the table. He casted a spell and suddenly you noticed a woman. She was tied up and hanging up side down. You looked at her and she slowly crossed the table. You looked at Draco and squeezed his hand a little. His eyes looked into yours forna short moment before you both looked back at the table.
'To those of you who do not know we are joined by miss Charity Burbage who until recently taught at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Her speciality was muggle studies.' Voldemort explained while walking back to his chair.
She was stopped right in front of you and Draco. You could hear her scared breathing.
'It is miss Burbages believe that muggles are not so different from us. She would, given it her way, let us mate with them.'
You heard sounds of disgust and laughing around you. What was happening? You had no clue why she was here. Draco looked at you again but you stared at the woman in front of you.
'To her the mixture of magical and muggle blood is not an abomination but something to be encouraged.' He finished while sitting down.
'S-s-severus... Severus please...' she whispered while looking at him. 'We're friends!' She tried.
Voldemort raised his wand with an evil smirk. You held dracos hand tightly. He tried to rub his thumb over your hand to comfort youm
'Avada Kedavra!' He screamed and she dropped dead right in front of you.
You knew you couldn't look away. It would be weak. Your tried to keep a straight face. This is what you signed up for. This was your life now. Watching people get murdered. Voldemorts snake slowly made his way on the table.
'Dinner.' He spoke while petting his head.
The snake motioned towards the dead women and you couldn't look. Your eyes slowly wondered off to the table.
'I think we're done here.' Voldemort spoke.
He got up and left the room with Nagini. Slowly more death eaters started to leave. You got up and so did Draco..
